Ivabradine Review Features in Cochrane Library App

 
In December our published review 'Ivabradine as adjuvant treatment for chronic heart failure' was featured in the December edition of the Cochrane Library app.

You can download the app and find more information about here. All content in the app is free and issues are published monthly.
 

Antibiotics for Infective Endocarditis Review Informs Guidelines

December illustrated the impact of our published reviews and their potential to inform policy and guidelines.

The 2020 ACC/AHA Guideline for the Management of Patients With Valvular Heart Disease was informed by our updated review of 'A comparison of different antibiotic regimens for the treatment of infective endocarditis' published in May. 

The same review has also been covered in a recently published Cochrane Corner.

Congratulations to our regular author
Arturo J Martí-Carvajal, first author on the review.

Cochrane Conflict of Interest Policy



In October 2020 Cochrane announced an updated and more rigorous conflict of interest policy. The updated policy applies to all newly registered titles and updates that began after the launch date, and will not apply to ongoing projects registered before the launch.
Please
read it here and contact us with any questions you may have.

Update: Cochrane have now produced a one page quick guidance for authors which explains the key points of the CoI policy for Cochrane Library Content.

Cochrane also have a COI training portal available here and a recorded webinar series available here.
